Although this incident is not an emergency, as our customers, you have a right to know what happened and what we are doing to correct this situation -The Louisiana Department of Health (LDH) has determined that the presence of microbiological contaminants is a health concern at certain Ievels of exposure and requires the disinfection of dninking water to kill disease-causing organisms.

These symptoms, however, are not just associated with disease-causing organisms in drinking water, but also may be caused by a number of factors other than your drinking water. LDH has set enforceable requirements for treating drinking water to reduce the risk of these adverse health effects. Treatment such as filtering and disinfecting the water removes and destroys microbiological contaminants. Drinking water which is treated to meet LDH requirements is associated with little to none of this risk and should be considered safe. -We are required to monitor your water for the residual disinfectant level. This tells us whether we are effectively treating the water supply.
